Rosebrooke Story

Located among the beautiful rolling hills of Brentwood, Tennesse, Rosebrooke is an exceptional community of 248 homesites. Situated on 365 acres at the intersection of Sunset and Split Log roads, this gorgeous piece of property was previously a horse farm known for its World Champion Arabian and Tennessee Walking horses. Named Sunset Hill Farm by previous owners, Dr. William and Mrs. Linda Gaw, today Rosebrooke showcases the natural beauty of this once pastoral land by retaining the rolling landscape, tree rows and bubbling streams.
A carefully curated Builders’ Guild, comprised of Middle Tennessee’s finest custom home builders, offers stately, classic architectural designs with elegant, livable floor plans. Their shared commitment to excellence makes these builders the ideal artisans for this extraordinary community.
Rosebrooke is the second luxury-home community created by the development partnership of Ford Communities and CPS Land. The team’s first venture, Witherspoon, has garnered numerous awards and achieved great success as one of Middle Tennessee’s premier communities. In their signature style, the development team places high priority on creating community through resort-style amenities that not only promote recreation, but also foster neighborly interaction amongst the residents. Rosebrooke amenities are to include a clubhouse with a great room, kitchen, and conference rooms; adult and children’s pools; a large playground; and an event lawn with an outdoor fireplace.
A network of tree-lined sidewalks and multi-purpose paved trails will weave throughout the neighborhood, eventually connecting to the extensive bike and walking path system within the City of Brentwood.
The exceptional location and beautiful natural setting, along with the highly experienced and accomplished development and builder team, is sure to make Rosebrooke Middle Tennessee’s most sought-after community for years to come.
